memes@lemmy.world•When you know that the password you entered is Correct but still have to deal with BS
3·2 months agoGood tip! Usually do that, but this was full disk encryption, which I have to enter in the terminal and not on anything the password manager integrates with. I could still have gone through typing it on screen and copy/pasting it, though.
The recommended way, which I am sure to follow next time, is to wait a few days to remove the old password. (Full disk encryption can have any number of passwords added.)

4·2 months agoI got stuck an utterly embarrassing amount of hours on this the other day because I recently changed my password but managed to set it with a typo.
I know it is correct, I wrote it down in my password manager, what the heck is going on, have I bern hacked? Do I have extremely specific disk corruption?
At the end I was wondering if the password algorithm was hitting some dodgy hardware (ram, rdseed32…) and just sat numbly and entered the password over and over again to see if it behaved differently. …and on one of those attempts I managed to do the same typo and the mystery was solved.
Immigrants, and also all of mainland Europe: Momentary confusion until we remember that secondary language is optional and frequently opted-out in some cultures.
Found many credible sources, all say Model X SUV.

Uranium! Advantage: Gets very hot. Disadvantage: Doesn’t stop.
Dunno why they needed to manipulate the upper ground plug to be more rapey. It would honestly be funny enough unaltered.
We are not rich by what we possess but by what we can do without? Yeah that sounds like something a manual cunt would say.

Software dev here. I am good at it, and people pay me unreasonably high rates to come in and do things faster and better than they can.
It AI coding tools were useful, I’d use them.
AI slows me down twice:
- 60% productivity loss whenever I try to use it for anything else than a code search engine.
- When I have to follow up the -1x engineers who are using AI to become -10x engineers.
I have yet to see an AI adopter who actually gets shit done in a way that is meaningful to anyone exept their own psychotic selves.
“With Claude I managed to do this in one hour!” Bro, what you did was generate 120 lines of Javascript that badly reimplements what could be a single line of CSS. You could have used that hour to learn some CSS.
“Without AI coding tools, our team would have taken at least a month to make this barely-working standalone image upload page.” My brother in Christ you are proudly yelling at me that you are fucking incompetent! A webdev worth their salary can shit out something better than that in their lunchtime bathroom break!

The hole is there to allow water to pass through the shower wall and accrue on the floor surface around the toilet, enhancing the sock experience of toiletgoers.
Yeah but it’s not good for “thE eCOnOMy”:
An efficient system just has fewer cracks to jam in rent-seeking, regulatory capture, artificial needs, fomo, hype, subscription service tiers, monopolies, service-services, gig indirections, consultants, charlatan management, etc.
You still can do that in an efficient system, but you can fit - like - five parasites there instead of five hundred.
If it’s more than 2 it doesn’t matter. I already picked up another offer by the time you get around to finding a date.
Beyond 2 interviews, the point is not to test you. It is to make you feel small.
Sorry but I’m gonna read that as “Eat preferences”
I feel sorry for all musicians who tried to make new music after this infinite peak of human art. All that wasted effort.
